Packed

Went to a meeting up in the Bronx
Cyrus got shot and the Rogues blamed us
The cops were all looking to bust our heads
I was sure we’d all end up dead
With our colors on, there’s nowhere to hide
We were down to eight, we started with nine
All left wondering if the truce was on
Cleon’s order made new warlord Swan

Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna have to bop our way back
Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna get japped, we’re gonna get japped

The Turnbull A.C.s chased us in a bus
Made it to the train before they caught us
Breezed past some small time clique
Much to the chagrin of the Gramercy Riffs
The Baseball Furies were the next to fall
They made an error and dropped the ball
Momentary lapse thinking with our d****
The Lizzies thought they were real tough chicks

Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna have to bop our way back
Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna get japped, we’re gonna get japped

The Rogues said to come out and play
We knew we’d finish this here today
Swan led them all out to the sand
Luther got stuck with a knife in his hand
The Riffs got our backs as they should
“You Warriors are good, real good”
Made it home with our vests on our backs
We’re never leaving Coney unless we’re packed

Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna have to bop our way back
Man I wish we were packed
We’re gonna get japped, we’re gonna get japped

about

Gotham City Mashers Queens, New York

Gotham City Mashers are a "real live bunch" from Astoria, Queens that formed in 2009 by four longtime friends who wanted to make music like the bands they grew up idolizing. If Keith Morris, Joe Perry, Cliff Burton, and Chuck Biscuits created a super group, they would probably sound a lot like Gotham City Mashers. ... more
